[jira] [Commented] (ACCUMULO-1017) Build libraries around generated proxy code

["Corey J. Nolet (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-1017?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13644222#comment-13644222 ] 

Corey J. Nolet commented on ACCUMULO-1017:
------------------------------------------

One of the reasons I began working on a more formal C++ API for Accumulo was because some of my coworkers and I wanted to be able to communicate with Accumulo in applications using Hadoop Pipes and/or sending compute jobs to CUDA. I think the C++ implementation (github.com/calrissian/accumulo-cpp) would be a good contribution here as well. 

Even if not versioned with Accumulo, I think it would be massively useful to foster standardization of APIs in different languages through community growth- having some outlet to put that code in Accumulo would be useful.

> Having resources to interact with Accumulo through the proxy in Ruby and Python is awesome, however the Ruby code isn't, persay, very Ruby-like, nor is the Python code very Python-like.
> It would be neat to get to the point where we have wrapper libraries to further ease the barrier to entry to those who would rather not write Java.
> There are pros and cons to this being versioned with Accumulo, so I'd also be curious what people think about maintaining such libraries our own, or letting the community grow them.
